There's not a whole lot of confirmed information out there about this incident involving the Nets star and Lil Baby, but TMZ has some more details:
Baby was seated in the back of a police van and appeared to be handcuffed … local reports say he was among 3 people arrested for some sort of marijuana-related charge. The report said the vehicle the men were traveling in was pulled over and officers could smell marijuana. There were allegedly 20 grams of weed discovered.
TMZ says they reached out the Paris Police Department but got little information other than there's an active investigation ongoing. It doesn't appear that Harden was ever arrested after his stop:

Harden and Lil Baby are close, with the Nets guard acting as an executive producer for the rapper's latest album. They've vacationed together before, and Harden was celebrating Lil Baby's birthday when he skipped workouts with the Houston Rockets before the 2020-21 season.
Stay tuned for more updates on this situation. If this incident only involves marijuana, it's truly not that big a deal. It's hard to see them getting into too much trouble over it.
